There are several reasons why your gums can bleed, the most important is due to the accumulation of dental plaque, which is nothing more than a bunch of bacteria stuck in your teeth, causing your gums to swell, separate from the tooth and bleed, since it is created an infectious process.

Other causes are bad habits as: brushing your teeth several times per day, bad brushing and flossing technique, the use of toothbrushes with hard bristles and brushing your teeth roughly.
